    Details are expected a little later today of the highly anticipated rewrite of the Arms Act


    Associate Justice Minister Nicole McKee has previously said the law is outdated and would be rewritten by 2026.

    Deerstalkers Association Chief Executive Gwyn Thurlow says there's a lot of trust in McKee.
